"But I first placed my hand on it," Viktor immediately said like a child who was about to have his candy stolen and didn't remove his hand from the box.
"Maybe. But I was the one who was looking for it first before you came along. You should go deliver some other parcel," Vanessa said as she narrowed her eyes, her hand still on the box.
"But that's not fair. My mother taught me the phrase 'finders keepers,' and it is bad manners to 'steal' what someone else found first. So I am sorry to say this, but you have to find some other package. If I were to back out like this, then I would be looking down on my mother's teachings. I can't do that," Viktor said in a resolute tone like a good mama's boy.
"Are you serious?" Vanessa asked coldly as she tried to grab the box by applying some strength.
Viktor inwardly smirked as he also applied some strength to prevent the box from going in her direction while maintaining his gaze with her.
